I think it depends on what you are comfortable with, have you taken exams on a computer before? Will you feel more comfortable with a computer or with paper? I have not seen any particular advantage the CBT has over the PBT in terms of scores so I guess it comes down to personal preference. However this is just my personal opinion, I have never tried the CBT so you may need to hear from those who have.

Yes I have taken exams on computer before.....

Anyways thanks for the info

PLEASE!!! ADVICE!!!

I'm about to register for my IELTS online now....

Is it advisable i register for CBT or the PBT

From those who have passed this stage please your advice is needed...

As in! Maybe IRCC agents read this thread and have seen such posts before - moneybags who are looking for young people to 'be the PA'.
Scrutiny has shared increased, everyone should just be careful

Maybe they are even here....
hmmmm

Hi dear,
Queen's University, Kingston.

First research where u wanna study. Please search based on your course and the lab. I guess by now, you have a picture of what you want to do. For me its- studies along climate change, Stable isotopes, NMR spectroscopy and ecosystem watershed. You know best. With those keywords , carefully weed out the Profs. Dont send a generic mail to every Prof in the department please. Just a few that are a good fit with your research area.

So you can search all schools in Canada by checking their Civil eng. Departments and their Profs. Contact those Profs. This step is key for PhD admission. You need someone ready to take u up for a period of 4-5 years.

Step 2: Secure a supervisor. It involves mailing all ur potential supervisors. This is where patience and fortitude is needed. Don't Stop mailing. Please carefully craft your introductory mails. For me, I did one to two Profs per 3 days so as to have time to check their papers, research work e.t.c. They have to feel that u really want to do research with them SPECIFICALLY.

Step 3: Once you have a supervisor that bids you come. He/She will most likely skype with you . Was so in my case sha. You can then --->Apply and TRUST God . Tell God about your desire. Mark 11:24 and he will perfect it. He's the one with the final say.
It will end in Praise!

Wow!!! it is well
Thanks for all the info..I appreciate

Good day . Please I got an offer for my PhD in Canada.....I just got it yesterday. It came with funding for 4 years.

I look forward to hearing from anyone.
Thanks

Pls I would love to know the school you applied to and how the process was.....I have MSc in Civil Eng and would love to go for PhD.
Please help

Your friend is facing 3 scenarios;
1. She goes ahead with the sham marriage/common law partnership, gets PR, moves to Canada, prospers and settles. Partnership ends, she goes on to achieve her dreams and own the land and etc. Brava!
2. The incredibly smart people who work in the various Canadian offices sniff out the sham, rejects their application and slam her with a 5 years ban for misrepresentation. Thus temporarily ending her dreams to go anywhere near Canada, USA, Australia, UK or New Zealand. Sad!
3. The sham goes through, she lands in Canada, they part ways and she goes on to settle in her new life. Becomes a Canadian citizen, makes a new family, rising steadily in her career, raking in the dollars, securing the bags. 20 years later, the sham is discovered. Everything goes poof. She'll be arrested, separated from her family, lose her job, lose her citizenship and get deported to a naija she won't even recognize. Tragic!

Advice? Tell the guy to try PNP. Tell your sister to stand on her own feet and walk into Canada

Lol But she's not my sister nah.....no false statement was made from what I said tho. Just brought it here, but I will tell her
lol thanks for the advice tho...I appreciate

gsade:
Please let her decline and enter the pool herself. What I see happening is that the "sponsor" will have to marry her (arrangee marriage things***). Hence, there is serious misrepresentation involved. Promptly discourage her pls.

okay thanks for the information. appreciate

Please your Advice is needed!!!

A friend called and told me this..

A friend of hers that they've talked for about two years ago called her and gave her a proposal. Its about Canada immigration tho, he said he has a friend that has a relative in Canada but due to the fact that his CRS score is very low and no chance of getting an ITA so he needs someone to stand as a PA, she's not sure if they would get married or not but it is to just increase the chances of getting an ITA.
The relative in Canada would be the sponsor tho.


So the question is ...is it advisable for her to take the deal due to the fact that she won't be paying because this has been her vision OR she should decline and enter the pool herself ?


Please your advice is needed!!!!!
